Workshop presented by Organic Valley Cooperative staff
This presentation will cover every stage of production in the processing of sustainable biodiesel fuels, from the initial planting of an oilseed crop to the final biodiesel or straight vegetable oil (SVO) product. In addition, we will look at the different aspects of a farm-scale model and directly relate this information to the economics of these processes. We will go through the numbers and demonstrate vegetable oil extraction and biodiesel processing with a diesel engine converted for SVO on a 466 International straight truck.
